Unique Non-US Games (i.e. Bobby is going home)

[Red 5]

Is there a list of games that are original non-US (probably non-NTSC) games?

 

Games like Bobby is Going Home and Snail vs. Squirrel.

 

I suppose you could throw TUG in there too.

 

I know there are a ton of hacks, but I am really looking for originals that I may have missed.

I have known about Bobby IGH for a while, but have only recently discovered Snail vs. Squirrel and

it got me thinking that I may have missed a bunch (hopefully! )

 

It's like new releases of 2600 games for me!

 

Thanks!

 

Thanks! I will edit as we list them:

Right off hand I think of Hole Hunter. It's not dirty, I swear! There's also Mr. Postman. I know the roms for both of those are out there.

Here's the PAL originals list:

Check each game out to see if it's connected with any NTSC versions of the same game (sometimes with a different title).

 

If not: PAL only.

 

For example: Bobby Is Going Home does exist as an NTSC cart:

I figured there would be some Non-US carts that were NTSC (mostly Brazilian carts I would guess).

 

It's fun because there were so many I didn't know about. I mean, how could I have missed Wing War ? ! ?

That looks freakin' great !

I've just added a bunch of must have games to my want list.

I am SOOOO loading my Croc cart with everything on that list !

 

(Man, this is fun...)

Unless NTSC versions have been recovered later, all PAL to NTSC indicate those games are PAL only.

Go the Brazilian games route, easy way to get those weird games to work on an NTSC console.

Looks like there are some interesting German titles too.

For those of us lazy folks who would rather not click on the above links to just see the entire list, don't forget the Technovision library!

 

Pharoahs Curse

Nuts

Save Our Ship

 

Other than hacks, I don't think they were ever available in the US and these are truly some great games.
